The process through which a Jewish girl grows up is full of meaning, hope, and excitement. Like most tweens and teenage girls, Racheli has many questions about the various physical and emotional changes she is experiencing. Through a series of letters and conversations with her daughter, Racheli's mother wisely and warmly leads her on this all-important journey into woman-hood, using simple, age-appropriate explanations and keeping to the parameters of tznius.
A must-read for every Jewish girl about to embark on her own journey!
